Memorial Photography
Memorial Photography
Photographs are one of the most treasured mementos a parent could have of their child. Many parents are uncomfortable making the decision to have photos taken, when they are grieving the loss of their baby. Those photos will be there when they are ready to have that peace and remember their child and the time they had with them.
We also provide photography for memorial services, for any age child. This is done in a very discreet manner, so that parents may look back and see all those loved ones that were there to remember their child and the impact that he or she has made on their lives.
All of our memorial photography is done FREE OF CHARGE for parents.

Grief Support Companion
Grief Support Companion
A Grief Support Companion will be a bereaved parent who is wanting to provide informal support and friendship to another more recently bereaved parent. It offers you and another parent an opportunity to share your grief and experiences together, to 'walk alongside' one another and in this way be a listening ear and an understanding 'friend'. Halos will initially get you connected and then the contact may be by phone, in person, email and/or Face Time, whatever works best for you both.
*You may sign up and not be matched with someone for a while if we don't have anyone who needs a companion right away.
If you are interested in learning to do molds at funeral homes so that parents can have this precious gift, please send an email to us at halosofthestcroixvalley@gmail.com. When we have enough intersted people we will hold a training at our office in New Richmond, WI.
When we have a family ask for refreshments for a service within 15 miles of New Richmond, WI we put a sign up on our main Facebook page.
